Yeah, welcome to the club. I was out at the Butterfield trail in Arkansas two weeks ago and it worked great in the rain. A bit loud, well louder then my previous silnylon tarp, but not so bad I couldn't sleep.

Set my new camo cuben HG Standard Tarp up in the back yard today - just to attach guylines, and some dutchware. Sorry, no pics - too windy...I'll hope to deploy this cuben at the Uwharrie hang in two weeks - pics then!!

Had a 2-piece dutchware ridgeline handy; but it's yellow! Gotta order a stealthier color ridgeline...

Any suggestions or reasons for using a one-piece ridgeline versus a two-piece ridgeline for this specific tarp ?

I use a continual ridgeline with two prusic knots so I can slide the tarp up and down the line so it is always centered between the trees with ease. However, I have been thinking of going with two ridgeline setup coming off the two ties on the ridge of the tarp. Not sure where I am going to go with it.
